If that turns them away, then you dodged a bullet. You’ll find your person, I promise. My husband stutters, and we’ve been together 13 years and married for 10. Honestly when we first met I was so enamored with him that I didn’t notice at first. Besides he didn’t talk much. He seriously text me after a date one night saying “I need to be honest with you” about gave me a heart attack… but he sent me this long text telling me he doesn’t talk a lot because he stutters and he understands if I don’t want to go out with him Anymore. I told him that wasn’t going to turn me away. Because when you genuinely care for someone you don’t let things they can’t help get in the way. But I understand it’s discouraging to get turned down. But there will be a girl out there that loves you for you, and isn’t phased by your stutter.
